This is a significant series for Texas Tech, hosting the Longhorns and what appears to be an incredibly talented pitching staff. This should be a fun weekend. Please note that two of the games will be on the television.

This is a huge series for the Red Raiders and head coach Tim Tadlock understands that he needs to keep his team grounded and take just one pitch at a time (via LAJ):

"Really, there is an emphasis on getting better here in about an hour," head coach Tim Tadlock said before Thursday’s practice. "We’ll be excited with Friday and deal with it as it comes. Then we’ll deal with Saturday. One of the things that’s clear to these guys is it’s not possible to play three games in one day, it’s not possible to play two pitches at a time. We’re best when we deal with it one at a time and were learning that a little bit each day as we go."
